(TheNewswire)
VANCOUVER, BC, February 27, 2025 TheNewswire – Heritage Mining Ltd. (CSE: HML FRA:Y66) (‘ Heritage ‘ or the ‘ Company ‘) is pleased to announce it has completed its drill program at the New Millennium area targeting two mineralized vein systems in the immediate vicinity of the highest grade grab sample on the property (2,330 gt Au) within its flagship Drayton Black Lake (‘ DBL ‘) Property (Figure 3 and 4). The Company will proceed to the Zone 3 area, then to Rognan area on the Contact Bay Property as previously communicated in press releases dated December 19, 2024 and December 11, 2024 respectively.
New Millennium Target Highlights:
-
Total 556m in nine holes completed vs planned 370m over seven holes. Additional meterage was driven from a favorable mineralization intersection. Core logging and processing is underway at the time of writing.
-
Drill holes show multiple occurrences (up to 51.40m core length) ofavariably mineralized shear zones, in granitic/felsic intrusions, and massive to semi massive quartz veins (Figure 1 and 2) in seven of the nine holes drilled.
-
The presence of chalcopyrite with pyrite in chlorite-carbonate alteration with patchy k-feldspar alteration in quartz veins and wall-rock is reminiscent of some of the best Au-bearing intercepts at the nearby Zone 3 Prospect that were drilled in 2024 (September 20, 2024, Press Release).

‘Heritage Mining is off to a great start in 2025. Our in-house drilling operations have begun to bear fruit. Our exploration team has successfully intersected favorable mineralized structures over core lengths up to ~51.40m targeting two mineralized vein systems in the immediate vicinity of the highest-grade grab sample on the property (2,330 g/t Au) at our flagship exploration DBL Property. Significant lengths of drill core are similar to our best Au-intercepts elsewhere on property, specifically Zone 3. These observations so close to the surface have exceeded our expectations.
We look forward to drilling Zone 3 (DBL Project) and Rognan Area (Contact Bay Project) prospects H1 2025.’ Commented Peter Schloo, President, CEO and Director of Heritage
We present in Figure 2 below a complete shear zone intercept in DDH HML025-006.
